Description

The project goal was to design ceramic vessels which give the user the tools and space to create their own individual evening rituals, to motivate the user to focus on the important aspect of calmness before sleep, and to help learning mindfulness. The design process started with a survey. Based on the respondents’ answers, the author decided to design specific vessels for different purposes, such as a warm infusion of herbs, relaxation with incense, or creating a pleasant atmosphere with the soothing and soft cotton scent of a candle. The author started with sketches, 3D modeling, and then she learnt how to 3D print with ceramics. Potential recipients include people living in a hurry who need a moment to stop and rest on a daily basis, and people who care about
the development of their minds and bodies.

Tools and software: Rhino, Prusa Slicer, Delta WASP 2040 3D pirinter for ceramics, clay, blue pigment, transparent glaze.
